ARCEON – High-Temperature Resistant Composites (HTRC)
ARCEON – High-Temperature Resistant Composites (HTRC) Dutch startup ARCEON creates innovative high-temperature resistant composites (HTRC) for satellites, rockets, and engine parts. Their products withstand temperatures exceeding 1000 degrees Celsius, retain a low coefficient of [1] thermal expansion, contain lightweight materials, and also reinforce mechanical robustness and durability.
Arceon was founded in 2018 Arceon with the vision to empower revolutionary technology advances by developing materials (Ceramic Matrix Composites – CMCs) with unique properties such as extreme heat resistance, superior durability and reduced corrosion levels, among others.
Offering a wide range of customized and comprehensive solutions, enhancements and innovations on existing [2] as well as future challenges, the company is currently active on the aerospace, aviation, and industrial equipment global markets.
Comprised of a team of talented professionals and highly-equipped scientists, Arceon has demonstrated strong potential for rapid expansion to highly promising and vital industries due to the products’ extensive applications as well as continuous and multi-dimensional business growth.
Our goal is to become a trend-setter in the field of novel material by bridging the gap between research and industry [3], while remain loyal to our key principles of: Innovation, Sustainability and Evolution.
ArCarb-HPS is specifically tailored for high precision systems where co-efficient of thermal expansion of a component can highly influence the output of a system. ArCarb-HPS combines fibre architecture and design expertise to obtain near zero co-efficient of thermal expansion along with significant weight reduction figure1.

ArCarb-UHT focuses on thermally stable components. Along with ultra-high temperature resistance, ArCarb-UHT also offers tailored thermal conductivity based on the system requirements. ArCarb-UHT components enhance the system by pushing the thermal boundaries and achieving [4] the optimum efficiency. ArCarb is 3 times lighter than superalloys and can withstand temperatures higher than superalloys (non-oxidising environment). Thus, making it an attractive prospect in ultra-high temperature domain.
ArCarb-LWR transforms its ultra-high temperature resistance capability into long-term wear and abrasion resistant components. An extremely low specific wear paired with tailored co-efficient of friction for braking and sliding elements enhances the tribology competence of a system. [5] The added benefit of low density provides ease of control for fast moving or accelerated components.
